School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: - School Management Organisation: We are a direct subsidy school with systematic, flexible and autonomous management. The school Management Committee collaborates on setting the direction of school policies which are then planned and implemented by relevant school departments and working groups. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: SMC was established. School Green Policy: Education on conservation also receives significant attention. Students learn to treasure resources through making use of the recycling bins placed by the Environment Protection Society in the campus. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Trilingual teaching and learning remains our focus. With Putonghua being the teaching medium of Chinese lessons in S.1, we have Putonghua lessons for S.2 and S.3 as well. To further enhance the effectiveness of English teaching, each form of S.1-S.3 is split into 6 groups according to their levels for the purpose of catering individual differences and implementation of school-based curriculum. There are 2 English classes in each of S.1-S.3. More English lessons are allotted for senior forms. After-school tutorial lessons are arranged daily for S.6. Learning and Teaching Strategies: To optimize our teaching, group lesson planning, lesson observations, teaching and learning evaluations are regularly practised. Funding from CEG is well utilized by introducing various learning activities to tap students’ potentials. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Students can select electives according to given class time. 2. Curriculum highlights: We have been developing school-based curricula on Chinese Language, English Language and Mathematics to facilitate effective teaching and learning. Development of the Four Key Tasks: 1. During Morning Reading Session, teachers discuss with students current affairs. Extensive reading lessons are introduced in junior forms. Book recommendations are regularly given by teachers in morning assemblies. There are reading clubs and ERS to encourage active reading among students. 2. Students are encouraged to do self-study. They can get access to various learning materials from the Resource Folder on the school intranet. There are also Chinese and English online reading programmes for all forms. For senior form students, they are encouraged to practise their English pronunciation in the morning reading session at MMLC. 3. We believe in the importance of learning outside classroom. Every year, there are exchange programs to China to broaden students’ horizons. It also allows students to learn more about China from different points of view. 4. All the subject panels, school organizations and the social worker are working closely together for the moral development of our students. Through various civic education activities, we hope to nurture our students into determined, responsible and respectable individuals. Life Planning Education: Please refer to school website.

Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: As for the aspect of integrated education, our school’s Guidance Team not only gives room to the teachers concerned to attend courses on catering for diverse learning needs, but also makes every effort to provide individual support for students who have such special needs by means of, for example, adjustments to requirements on such students’ learning, as well as extra time allowance during tests and examinations. It is hoped that on one hand students with different learning needs can all enjoy a healthy learning environment, and on the other fairness in assessment and grading is guaranteed. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Both term scores and exam results are taken highly in junior forms through different modes of assessment. Assessments for senior forms are also based on the criteria of public exams. General tests are conducted weekly for all forms.

Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The Parents-Teachers relationship has always been a close and supportive one. Our unique tradition of visiting students’ home has started since the establishment of the school and the Parents-Teachers Association was established in 1958. The General Office, class teachers and parents complement each other and have maintained effective communication. There are constantly activities involving parents for better communication, like “Prize-giving Ceremony for Outstanding Students and Parent Volunteers”, talks for parents, etc. School Ethos: The school emphasizes discipline but also value harmonious teachers-students relationship.

Scholarships and allowances are given to students with good academic performance or financial difficulties.

The School's Policy & Executive Committee and different functional groups help to facilitate the integration of teaching and learning. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Our School Management Committee (SMC) was set up in 1999. It now consists of 10 members, including the Chairman (assigned by a delegate of EDB), the School Principal, 2 parent representatives, 2 members of the Alumni Association, 2 independent members and 2 teacher representatives. Under normal circumstances, three meetings are held every year to discuss and report on major school matters. School Green Policy: The school attaches much importance to environmental education which aims to promote energy saving. The Green Wall and library rooftop greening project has been completed. Renewable energy projects at rooftop are now in progress. We cultivate environmental awareness among students through field trips and education. Our Environmental Education Committee also organizes educational environmental programmes regularly. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Our objectives are to enrich the English language environment within our school and provide opportunities for students to use and be exposed to English. To facilitate students with a good English learning environment, extended English learning activities are conducted in Integrated Science (Biology), Life and Society and Music in junior forms. With a team of language teachers all attained the Language Proficiency Requirement and a NET teacher, we organize a variety of activities to enhance students’ learning in languages. Regular activities such as Chinese and English Extensive Reading Schemes, Morning Reading Scheme, English Drama, Chinese and English Verse Speaking and Debate Classes are conducted to raise the competence of students’ learning in languages. We also develop a School-based English Curriculum with tailor-made learning materials and interactive activities is prepared for our students. Different modes of assessments are employed to cater for learner diversity and to encourage English learning. Students with better English proficiency can opt for DSE examination papers in English for Physics and Chemistry. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Our school concerns the latest development of education. To cater for students' diversity in learning, teachers adopt different teaching strategies to optimize the effectiveness of student learning. Students have the opportunities to participate in a variety of teaching activities and learning experiences. We cooperated with a number of tertiary institutions to enhance students' learning abilities, including "Aviation Studies", "Computer Game and Animation Design" and "Vocational English Course" etc for senior students.

School Management Organisation: A school-based management method has been adopted. A hierarchy of different committees helps to coordinate curriculum development, moral education, use of I.T. and life-wide learning activities. We also keep close contact with parents.

We have installed a solar power plant to further promote environmental protection. The School also encourages students to bring their personal utensils, promoting Green lunch and energy-saving measures with the Green Group. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: We use English as our medium of instruction except E&RE and Liberal Studies. (For details, please refer to the subjects offered/to be offered in the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school years). However, in order to train moral behaviour and multi-perspectives thinking more effectively, we use students' mother language in E&RE and Liberal Studies lessons. Learning and Teaching Strategies: To inculcate life-long learning, all subjects adopt a life-wide learning approach that incorporates activities like inter-school debates, field trips and public forums to let students step out of the classrooms and widen their horizons. We also organize learning strategy training and cooperative learning courses for students to strengthen their thinking and cooperation skills. To help students establish the habit of active-learning, we launch a three-year progressive thinking and study skills training programme for all junior form students. We aim at enhancing their learning effectiveness through offering several training workshops and feedback sessions about different study skills to them. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: Students may take 3 elective subjects, Mathematics Extended Part and Applied Learning Courses in S.4-S.6. 2. Curriculum highlights: S.1 to S.3: To enhance students' proficiency in both Languages, the school has incorporated "English Language Arts", elements of English Literature and "Chinese Culture and Chinese Literature" into junior form English Language and Chinese Language curriculum respectively. Besides that, "School-Based Drama Education Programme" is also developed based on students' abilities with a view to enhancing their expression skills and creativity through systematic spiral learning. To help students establish a good foundation for senior-level Liberal Studies, teachers also help students raise their social awareness and enhance their expression skills through interactive activities such as news forum and newspaper cutting in S1-S3 Life and Society. Development of the Four Key Tasks: (1) Moral and Civic Education: The school has strategically immersed moral and civic education into the formal curriculum through various subjects such as Ethics and Religious Education, Life and Society, Liberal Studies, Chinese Language, Chinese History, and History. Different activities are also arranged to enhance students' moral standard and civic awareness. (2) Reading to learn: Promoting reading to learn has been one of the major concerns in our school for many years. We aim to promote students' interest and habit in reading as well as their capability of learning from reading. A 20-minute morning reading period has been incorporated into the timetable for years and Promotion of Reading Scheme has also been launched to arouse students' reading interests starting from this school year. (3) Project-based learning: Different research skills are trained through various group projects in Life and Society. The Issue Enquiry Studies in Liberal Studies also helps to cultivate students' initiative in learning; foster higher-order thinking, and strengthen their communication skills. (4) eLearning and STEM Development: To enhance effective and efficient learning, other than whole school Wi-Fi coverage with sufficient supply of mobile devices, our school has launched different platforms such as Google Apps for Education and Office 365; adopted new teaching methods such as ‘flipped learning’ in all academic subjects. To better equip our students to meet the needs of the advanced technological society, we have regular STEM lessons in S.2, infiltrated STEM into the junior curriculum, and established an ECA group ‘Makers Team’ to provide more STEM-related activities and training to interest our students. Life Planning Education: Further studies and careers planning is a process. Holistic guidance programmes have been implemented in our school to help students develop a better understanding of themselves, their abilities, strengths and weaknesses. To facilitate students in life planning, goal setting and career formulating, diverse career-related activities and experiences are provided for them. Our guidance programmes aim to encourage students to make informed and responsible choices on their studies, occupations, career goals and other aspects of life. Student Support Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity: To cater for students' diverse learning abilities, the school has adopted small-class teaching according to the competency of students in Chinese, English, Mathematics, and Liberal Studies. Students are also encouraged to join the "After-School Support Service Programme" so as to consolidate what they have learnt during lessons. To further stretch students' abilities and to enrich their exposure in different learning experiences, the school has organized "School-Based Gifted Education Programme" in both Mathematics and Science at junior level. For those who attain outstanding performance in Mathematics, , Humanities and Leadership, they will be nominated by the school to join the training programmes provided by "The Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education". To pave the way for further studies and future career, senior form students are also highly encouraged to enroll in summer courses offered by local and overseas universities. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Our school promotes inclusive values and implements the Whole School Approach to Integrated Education to cater for learning diversity effectively. With the learning support grant and other resources, we provide appropriate and collective support to the students with special education needs, so as to help enhance their learning effectiveness.

S.1-S.3 promotion criteria: Pass in grand average, Chinese Language, English Language and Mathematics. Decisions on students' promotion / detention are collaboratively made by the Principal, vice principals, class teachers and subject teachers during the year-end promotion meetings. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: We maintain a warm and close relationship with parents as we understand that nothing can be achieved without their full cooperation. We have an orientation programme for the parents of S.1 students. We also have numerous occasions each year for class teachers to share their opinions with parents on students' performance individually. Our class teachers also have a practice of giving "Sunshine Call", which is calling the parents at least once a year. Besides that, we welcome parents to participate in school functions such as Teachers' Day and Sports Day. Many parents serve as voluntary helpers, such as performing daily duties in the PTA room. Our PTA, established more than twenty years ago, supplies a great variety of educational and recreational functions for parents and students. It is also a body that the school will consult in major issues. School Ethos: Our students are well-behaved. The teacher-student relationship is harmonious. Guidance monitresses organized by the Guidance Committee help S.1 students to adapt to their new school life. There are two class teachers for S.1-S.4 classes. Class teachers meet students and contact parents regularly to help with students' moral and academic development. Future Development School Development Plan: To raise teaching quality and learning effectiveness and to provide an all-round education for our students have been the two interlocking objectives of our school's development in recent years. To achieve these goals for improving learning effectiveness, we push forward the thinking and study skills program, the super memory and the high flyers support program for our students. Besides that, we will launch a leadership campaign for our students that every one of them needs to take up at least a post at the school level (such as Prefects, Student Association chairperson) or class level (such as class monitress, subject leaders) so that they can be trained to become a future leader in society. Our school is also actively promoting Spiritual Education. We aim to nurture in our students tranquil and contemplative minds. In our religious lessons, we encourage students to get connected with their inner selves and to bring mindfulness into their lives in the hope of helping them develop a positive outlook on life.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. To further enhance the effectiveness of learning and teaching. 2. To sustain our belief of whole-person development. School Management Organisation: Our academy is operating under the management of Tsung Tsin Mission of HK Shamshuipo Church, which is a Christian organization with a long history and school management experience. To date, 4 schools, including our academy, are managed under Shamshuipo Church. They are: Shatin Tsung Tsin Secondary School, Tsung Tsin College and Tsung Tsin Primary School and Kindergarten. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The SMC, established in 2009, includes representatives of school sponsoring body, the principal, teachers, parents and independent professionals. School Green Policy: Facilities such as greenhouse and indoor garden and related ecology activities connect students with Geography and Biology after class. In Christian Ethics and Liberal Studies, the social significance of environmental protection is emphazised through issue-enquiry approach. Waste Reduction: Paper waste separation bins in classrooms, three-colour recycle bins on the ground floor and a food waste processor in greenhouse promotes waste reduction and recycling habits on campus. To further reduce plastic consumption, we are considering cutting down on the sale of bottled water, and installing more eco-friendly drinking fountains around the campus. Students are also required to use the water-absorbent umbrella cases distributed by the school. Renewable Energy: Solar photovoltaic (PV) system has been installed to employ a level of sustainability and raise environmental awareness among students. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: As an EMI school, not only all lessons (excluding Chinese, Chinese History, Putonghua, Christian Ethics and Physical Education) are taught in English, most school events and activities including morning devotion sessions, announcements and promotions are mainly conducted in English also. In order to create an English-rich learning environment, we have a number of Native-speaking English teachers to teach different subjects so that teachers and students can share through a language they both are familiar with and students’ exposure to English can also be increased. On the other hand, Putonghua is used to teach Chinese Language in some junior classes so as to cater for the needs of the students who have learnt Chinese in Putonghua in their primary schools. Learning and Teaching Strategies: 1. Small Class Teaching – Each class consists of 27 students on average. Teacher-student and student-student interactions can be increased through low student-teacher ratio. 2. Self-directed Learning – Our school aims to promote self-directed learning among all forms and all subjects. Having prepared for their lessons, students are expected to participate in lessons proactively so as to improve their self-efficacy in learning. Being one of the pioneers in pre-lesson enquiry in secondary education, TTCA Chinese department has been invited to various occasions to share their successful experiences and open their classrooms for demonstration. 3. Collaborative Learning – We emphasize the importance of building knowledge and skills together by encouraging students to work closely with each other inside and outside classroom. A variety of strategies is practised to promote collaboration among students, so that students can master the objectives of each lesson and fully understand the knowledge taught. 4. E-learning – Information technology, including various online platforms, apps and tablets, has been widely used in the school to enhance the effectiveness of learning and teaching. 5. Modular Curriculum – Modular approach is implemented in S.1 and S2. Students focus on fewer subjects per semester so that they can master the newly acquired knowledge and skills with more flexibility and relieve their stress from assignments and assessments. 6. Innovation and Technology Education - Thinking skills and STEM curriculum are tailor-made for junior form students. By cultivating their creativity and critical thinking, they are prepared for the future development in the society. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. For senior secondary curriculum, there are 90 combinations of elective subjects provided for students. To explore different pathways for students, IAL curriculum has been approved by the Education Bureau and will be implemented starting from the academic year 2021-2022. 2. Curriculum highlights: a. To cultivate the spirit of scientific enquiry and creative thinking, our STEM curriculum introduces programming and assembly of robots to our junior-form students; b. Catering for learner diversity through enhancement classes; c. Curriculum adaption with reference to 3-3-4 curriculum School-based curriculums funded by the Quality Education Fund: - Self-directed Learning in Chinese Language: Integration of Pre-lesson Enquiry and MAPS Teaching Methodology - STEM Education of Synthetic Biology, training students to join the iGEM competition for beginners - School-based Junior Thinking Skills Curriculum Development of the Four Key Tasks: Moral, Civic and National Education: 1. Christian Ethics lessons for S.1-S.6 students. Discussions and analysis of social issues from different angles and upon biblical morality are in place during classes. 2. Social issue and personal experience sharing by teachers and students at class period. 3. Besides embedding moral and civic education into different subjects, form-based class periods are also tailor-made for students with the aid of subsidies from the Quality Education Fund (QEF). Reading-to-Learn: 1. Reading time every afternoon to foster students’ reading habits. 2. Elements of reading are emphasized in various subjects to allow more platforms for students to scaffold their knowledge. Project-based Learning: Through different projects, we aim to improve students’ problem-solving skills and nourish students’ interest in those subjects through research-intensive learning. E-learning: 1. All students are equipped with Google accounts and are taught to utilize Google Classroom. Learning does not just take place in physical classrooms, but expands to virtual classrooms and everyday life. 2. Interactive teaching and learning is achieved through tablets and educational apps. Life Planning Education: Seminars, workshops and site visits are arranged for Life Planning.

Junior form students have to fulfil the English extracurricular activities requirement and their participation is recorded in the report card. Learning and Teaching Strategies: 1.

In this regard, we develop e-learning in class, implement BYOD, and incorporate STEM education and cross-curricular project learning in our junior form curriculum. 2. We make use of the three aspects of assessment to promote learning and teaching: assessment of learning, assessment for learning and assessment as learning.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. Promote e-learning, facilitate self-directed learning. 2. Cater for learner diversity, enhance learning ability. 3. Realise multiple potentials, promote whole-person development. School Management Organisation: Our school has a long history of high-quality autonomous school management. The management implements school policies by holding accountability in different school committees. Parents can join the planning and review school policies through participation in the Parent-Teacher Association. In addition, we have a highly qualified teaching team. All of our teachers are ranked as Graduate Masters with relevant teaching qualifications. Both Putonhua and English teachers have fulfilled the benchmark of language proficiency. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Supervisor: Mr. Chu Chung Shing, BBS Deputy Supervisor: Mr. Chu Tak Wing Managers: Dr. Lam Wor Lam, Mr. Lam Kin Tak, Mr. Ho Wai Ming, Ms Lam Chui Ling Nancy, MH Ms Yeung Sim Fong, Mr. Lung Hung Cheuk, Mr. Mak Kwong Lee, Mr. Yeung Sun Sunny School Green Policy: Through participation in Hong Kong Green School Campaign organized by the Environmental Protection Committee, we promote environmental consciousness with the main theme of resource conservation and green lifestyle. Part of the campaign also involves greening the campus to provide an ideal learning environment. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: In the junior form, we have EMI classes where English is used to teach all the subjects except Chinese. In addition, some of our S.1 and S.2 classes use Mandarin as the medium of instruction in Chinese lessons. The senior forms students can choose to either take their examination in Chinese or English. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We do not have streaming based on Arts and Science. Instead, students can choose from two blocks of elective subjects according to their learning needs and styles in addition to the four core subjects. This helps to maximize their learning outcomes. The school also reserves extra funding to organize various apply learning courses by the service providers especially for Secondary 5 students. The availability of classes with English as the medium of instruction in junior forms caters for learner diversity. We also have the ‘All-rounded Learning Award Scheme’ to motivate students to strive for excellence in various aspects, especially their academics. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. Elective subjects: Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Chinese History, Geography, History, Economics, Information and Communication Technology, Visual Arts 2. Curriculum highlights: This year, our school has fully implemented the Bring Your Own Device project and promoted e-learning. It is hoped that through BYOD, students will have more personal, interactive and collaborative learning opportunities. This can enhance the fun and effectiveness of learning, and raise students' ability to carry out self-directed learning. Development of the Four Key Tasks: Moral and Civic Education: Through diversified talks and activities, students are cultivated with positive values and attitudes. Life-oriented themes are used to provide students with comprehensive learning experiences and facilitate their all-round development. Reading to Learn: Different types of reading schemes are promoted to encourage students to make good use of e-reading platforms in order to enhance their language proficiency. Students can also read extensively according to their personal interests and needs to cultivate their interests in various areas. Project Learning: Interdisciplinary project learning is arranged. This can cultivate among students a spirit in self-directed learning and active knowledge acquisition. This can also broaden their horizons and cultivate their generic skills. Information Technology for Interactive Learning: The school makes good use of information technology for learning and assessment activities in different Key Learning Areas to help enhance the effectiveness of learning and teaching, and deepen students’ understanding of course contents. Life Planning Education: The tailor-made guidance programme aims to offer advisory service to F.3 and F.6 students on NSS elective subject choices and further studies and careers options respectively. The professional career counselor and assistant will assess students’ interests, competence and personalities through Career Interest Inventory (CII) test and obtain an assessment report for each student. After analyzing the report, the professional career counselor and assistant will meet students individually to discuss their abilities, strengths and weaknesses. They will also give flexible career routes based on the assessment results. The career team also provides students with relevant information to help students to select suitable courses and make wise career choices for their future. Student Support Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity: Living up to the ideals of equal education opportunities, our school provides various support programmes for students with financial difficulty. School fee remission, scholarships and subsidies are available for families in need of financial assistance. Immigrant students need to join our schools “Immigrant Adjustment Scheme” which provides support to integrate into society such as life coaching and English remedial classes. The main aim of the scheme is to boost students’ confidence and social network. Other programs to help students include School-based After-class Learning Support, District-based Tutorials provided by NGOs and Student Activities Support Grant. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Our school has established a special team to cater for learner diversity aiming at providing appropriate support and advice to students with special needs. There are a wide range of activities organized including “peer counselling scheme”, “new student adaption group”, “home visit scheme”, “newly arrival scheme” etc. Besides, we also offer a “Chinese writing class” to support junior form students who have learning difficulties and organize an “interrelationship and social skills enhancement team” for students who face problems in socializing. In addition, Our school has employed a stationing educational psychologist to provide necessary support to SEN students. In addition, appropriate adjustments will be made to the curriculum design and examination paper arrangements to meet the different needs of students. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: providing after-school support programmes in learning Chinese; appointing additional teacher(s)/teaching assistant(s) to support NCS students’ learning of Chinese; arranging intensive Chinese learning and teaching mode(s), e.g. pull-out learning if necessary, split-class/group learning, etc.; developing school-based Chinese Language curriculum and/or adapting learning and teaching materials; and organising cultural integration activities.
